Murat Kanatli stated that the population in the occupied areas of Cyprus has reached 500 thousands
Turkish Cypriot daily Kibris newspaper (07.02.08 ) reports that the secretary of the executive council of the New Cyprus Party (YKP) Murat Kanatli held a press conference yesterday and said that at present the population in the occupied part of Cyprus has reached 500 thousands and it is very difficult for the existing infrastructure to maintain this number. He urged that a stop be put to bringing in people from Turkey and he said that taking into consideration the human rights situation the people brought over from Turkey should be reduced gradually.
He said that the people brought from Turkey are the main element of usurping the right to elect and to be elected of the Turkish Cypriots and eliminating their free will. He said that to this effect they have prepared a report and submitted it to the political groups in the European Parliament and to the members of the Contact Group. He went on and said that they will submit this report to the EU term presidency, Slovenia, the EU Commission’s Office in Cyprus to be distributed to other relevant bodies.(MHY)
